Im guessing it was overfilled by atleast 2 ltrs but it was never blowing as much snoke the. Last couple of days so doesnt make sence.

We will see soon what happens but atm still no idea

You must have some idea.

It's either due to your crazy overfill.

Or engine has busted some ring lands

Or turbo seals have gone.

As discussed in this thread.

Oil dipstick being forced out also sounds like excessive crank-case pressure build up.

Could be worn rings creating excess crankcase pressure or blocked breather setup not allowing crank to breathe.

Excess crankcase pressure could also cause oil seals to leak..

Ok my comp were 160s across the board.

I changed oil put oil thickner in it and it stopped blowing blue smoke under boost only sometimes and now it just blows on idle when revving blue smoke occurs and when coming of the excellerator underload it blows blue smoke

Its now blowing alot of black smoke and big flames and all of a sudden theres no performance in second gear!

Third gear is coming on boost but not as it use to very slow and not as crazy. My dipstick is blowing anymore and i checked my pcv hoses including one to the turbo and theres only a smir of oil but theres smoke coming out of the hoses have no idea what that means but no oil at all? Im leaning towards turbos only because the performance of the car is really bad and it all of a sudden running really f*kn rich?

Any thoughts i will not purchase a catch can if theres no excessive oil coming out the breather system. Maybe valve stem seals?

Any ideas im leanig towards turbos guys but again therre was only a smir of oil in the intercooler pipe nothing crazy

Yeah maybe you should stop driving it so much while there is a definite issue with the car, you could have even destroyed the turbos running that much boost. Park the car up and remove the intercooler piping to the turbos and have a look there like the guys have said. There shouldn't be very much oil but if there is pooling there that is your issue. Pull the dumps off at the rear of the turbos and have a look in there as well, you might be missing the exhaust wheel on one turbo. If you haven't got the mech know how to get that done just tow it to your mechanic and leave it there until it is diagnosed. It's not worth destroying your engine by running it and trying to boost while you have some major oil issue.

Ok i am guessing it is valve stem seals as comp test shows all same readings across the board.

Turbors are very non responsive but still making boost just not as aggressive so thats 1 problem but im saying valve stem seals purely because it now happebs in 3gear and 4 th when i give it to about 6-7000rpm abd deexcelerate and let the rpms fall smoke gushess out everywhere like a bush fire abd its blue. Its there when im boosting it but jot as much as when im deexcelerating the car so my gues is valve stem seals i put oil thickner with 10/40 and did nothing at all?

Nothing no smoke when i remove cap or dipstick! When i remov the hoses for pcv system i see smoke coming out of the hoses?

Just a bit like very little smoke.

I will rip of all the piping tonight and look closer to the intrcopler for oil because i removed the big ass intercooler pipe near the Y pipe and smir of oil pn the pipe so thats why i discard it from being turbos though ill take of the pipe to the cooler and see if its all hanging down there i want an excuse to go single loll

The fact it doesnt do it on idle when cold shows me its only on revving down from high rpm and underload on boost and on idle when revving it!

I dont think turbos it might be but i dont think so there was a smir of oil in Y pipe i think valve stem seals or maybe a piston ring landin

The pinging was only here and there maybe happened 5times worse was 109 on knock sensor but after i changed spark plugs and drove it around stopped happening doesnt happen in any gear now?

Smoke accured after laat drive on sunday

Valve stem seals tend to show when you have let the car sit for a bit then take off. Does it blow smoke on startup after leaving the car for a few hours? If not I highly doubt it's valve stem seals.

Also I wouldnt be putting oil thickiner in an engine that takes thin fully synthetic oil

Cylinder comp test on cold i just did one on warm showed those results im not to worried about 1-5. They all show same its number 6 at 70. Now the question remains why it happened and what part went wrong and do i blame my tuner it lasted 2 days of dyno

    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
